SEC.gov | Request Rate Threshold Exceeded

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission

You’ve Exceeded the SEC’s Traffic Limit

Your request rate has exceeded the SEC’s maximum allowable requests per second. Your access to SEC.gov will be limited for 10 minutes.

Current guidelines limit each user to a total of no more than 10 requests per second, regardless of the number of machines used to submit requests. To ensure that SEC.gov remains available to all users, we reserve the right to block IP addresses that submit excessive requests.

The block will be lifted automatically by waiting 10 minutes. Continuing to exceed the SEC’s maximum allowable request rate during the time-out period will extend the duration of the time-out period. To ensure fair access for all users, please reduce the rate of your requests and visit SEC.gov again after the 10 minute time-out period has passed.

You can also sign up for email updates on the SEC open data program, including best practices that make it more efficient to download data, and SEC.gov enhancements that may impact scripted downloading processes.

As reported in our shareholder letter furnished with the Securities and Exchange Commission on the same date, there was a 147 percent increase in deliveries for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, as opposed to the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to the fourth quarter of 2022 as stated in the prior version of the Press Release. Other than the correction discussed in this 8-K/A, no other changes have been made to the Original 8-K or the exhibits furnished therewith.

Item 2.02 - Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

The corrected Press Release announcing the Company’s financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023 is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this 8-K/A and is incorporated herein by reference.
